Ridley Scott Going Biblical




It seems like Ridley Scott's wish list of projects just keeps going and going, but earlier this week the director revealed yet another film he has lined up in his queue, and this time it's .


"I've got something else in the works. I'm already doing it. It's called Moses," Scott told Esquire in a recent interview. "I probably shouldn't have let that slip out. I'm not supposed to say anything... It's definitely in the cards, though. What's interesting to me about Moses isn't the big stuff that everybody knows. It's things like his relationship with Ramses [II, the pharaoh]. I honestly wasn't paying attention in school when I was told the story of Moses. Some of the details of his life are extraordinary."


The story of Moses has been a hot ticket item at the studios lately. Both Warner Bros. and 20th Century Fox have laid claim to their own projects centered on the ancient prophet. Last we heard, Spielberg was attached to direct Gods and Kings for Warners, so we can only assume for now that Scott was referring to the Moses pic over at Fox.


In the meantime, the filmmaker has plenty more to work on, including his next film The Counselor.
